If Park Bank is liable for not spotting Sujata "Sue" Sachdeva's $34 million embezzlement from Koss Corp. and has to reimburse the company, Koss Chief Executive Michael Koss should also be ordered to personally pay the public company he runs, the bank argues in a new lawsuit.

Grant Thornton, Koss Corp.'s former auditor, should also have to pay a portion of any award that may be ordered, Park Bank argued in the latest twist in a long-running court fight stemming from Sachdeva's massive embezzlement.

"Park Bank denies any and all liability to Koss in this case," the bank said in its action. "Nevertheless, should Park Bank be found liable to Koss (Corp.) and required to pay damages to Koss, in this case, those damages will have been the result of a common liability of Park Bank, Michael Koss and Grant Thornton, thereby entitling Park Bank to (a) contribution from Michael Koss and Grant Thornton."(10)

Homer media at its best. So, next year do you think we will be the #8 seed or the first team out of the playoffs? Doing the same thing and expecting different results is the definition of insanity.

How many trades do you think it will take to get rid of the crappy contracts we are going to sign with Jennings and Redick?

The excuse with Hammond was that he needed time to undo the damage inflicted under Harris. Will the excuse for the next GM be that he needs to undo the damage done by Hammond? OKC did it right (ok - they were Seattle at the time). Houston has done a great job. Orlando is on the right track. Its evident that the Bucks have no plan at all. JJ Redick wouldn't play 5 mins a game for OKC or Miami. He'd maybe get 15 mins of run on the Spurs, but they are one of the oldest teams in the league.

Dude, you can say that about a lot of teams in the NBA. It's all about players wanting to play here. It all started with letting Ray Allen and George Karl go. Keeping both those guys would've kept the Bucks relevant for years. I guess it's easy to say that now

You nailed it HW. As good as Karl might have been at times, he masterminded that trade debacle so he rightfully should be blamed with engineering the Bucks downfall that's lasted for more than a decade. Personally, I always felt that he was vastly overrated as a coach.

I would like to write a manifesto..., or two about the Bucks and the "Neverending Story," their "eternal" quest for mediocrity and the always exciting 8th seed.

I will make this statement as brief as possible instead.

Beno (good player off the bench, and great expiring contract), Harris (a young player with some possible upside), and Lamb (another young player with some possible upside) for JJ is, in my opinion, an insult to Bucks fans.

This was not even a lateral move! My only hope, (not like I have much of that left for this team) is that they have reached some kind of agreement with JJ and he will stay with the team for three seasons, not more.

Still, I would have preferred to see Harris and Lamb stay with the team, and see them RECEIVING 20 MINUTES OF GAME TIME EVERY GAME.

I don't know people, for me, this season the Bucks have turned into nothing more than a conversation topic.

Back now to continue reading the final 200 posts from the previous thread.

Senator Kohl...,John Hammond...,

A BIG RED THUMB FOR BOTH OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![Insert angry emoticon here.]

Relax people it was better than nothing and the Bulls and Pacers didn't get him. See what it does.Sonds as they did everything possible to get Smith withoout giving up the farm. They'll do better in the offseason value wise.

I agree. Worst thing we could have read today is Hammond giving up Henson or Sabders to get stupid Josh Smith. Again Redick at least puts a nother shooter next to Jennings. So we can evaluate him more as a true PG.. Now is not the time to panic. I honestly do believe in the end it's about who you give (2) max contracts to. Neither should be Ellis or Josh Smith. All this trade does is help in evaluating the worth of Jennings or Redick himself.

Well this does give the Bucks a shooting guard that can shoot. For a team with no Superstars you should at least try to build it by the Basketball code for each position.

PG-Somebody who makes others better by passingSG-Somebody who can shootSF-Somebody who can get their own shot off the dribble or can really shootPF-Inside power, rebounding and can play tough defenseC-Same as PF

Bucks

So when evaluating the team Brandon now has no excuses if his assist total doesn't climb. Many good point guards could get assists playing with Ellis, Redick, Jr, Ersan and the rest.

So this really in a sense might help us in evaluating Brandon. Again no excuses now kid. Show us that you can pass. Then if you look at the requirements I lised above. We're not too bad at them going into 2013-2014 even minus Ellis.

PG-JenningsSG-RedickSF-Jr.PF-HensonC-Sanders

Others like Ilyasova added to the mix.

Maybe sign Redick and build from there this summer? At least you start to see a team forming with players who's skills define their position. Key again is for Brandon to now show us that he can play great PG with shooters surrounding him.

The guys we traded are to me no big deal. Harris does not have skills that jump out at me for the SF position. Lamb or Beno are no big loss. I would rather just see how this works.

Harris = tweener forward, too slow and stiff to guard a three. to short for the four, otherwise OKLamb = 2nd round pick, who shot even more poorly than Ellis and Jennings, and who played tough D (like a second round pick)Beno= under-rated and (lately) under-utilized****Redick=30th in NBA in points per shot, 2nd on Bucks to DalembertAyon= tall and heavy, shoots 50% plus and rebounds his weightIshy= made Bucks guards look slow and foolish when they played the Bucks, probably will get paid less than Sophie***As I predicted, a good trade (we got more than we gave), but a small minded, timid and inconsequential trade***Did we have a plan, or did we go bargain shopping?

I'm pretty much from the school you're teaching [fish]. John Hammond, who certainly doesn't have an impeccable record, has been ripped pretty consistently by the hundreds of message board posts today.

I, myself, not a Hammond booster, agree with you on this trade today. I've heard all season long, that the only reason Jennings' assist totals aren't higher are because of poor teammates shooting percentage. This trade can only help that argument.

The new 3 guard rotation is much better with Redick than Udrih. The bench, therefore becomes better, with more options.

Who knows what's going to happen after the season with all three guards, but the same could have been said before the trade. So nothing can be said negative about that situation.

As for the loss of Harris and Lamb ... that scribbling around the margins.Maybe they develop into NBAers, maybe they don't. Seems to be a crap shot at best hoping they will.

Good players attract other good players. The Bucks got another good player for the rest of this season. Maybe some success and chemistry might be built during this playoff run and this franchise finally will come up with a plan this summer.

"I think with them bringing me in I assume they want to get into the playoffs, make a playoff run and get as high a seed as possible," Redick said. "Hopefully, I can help them do that and we'll deal with the summer when the summer happens."

I know its printed media.... but I definitely don't read these words as being said in a tone that would suggest much excitement or enthusiasm. Would you rather live in Orlando & lose, or Milwaukee & fight like heck for the 8th seed, JJ?????
